There is a similar issue in e.g. gnome calculator. When typing a character after starting a new instance the input box will change size. This only seems to happen with certain combinations of fonts and sizes. Wonder if it may be linked to hidpi scaling, though haven't been able to check if the same issue occurs on standard screens.

Steps to reproduce: 1) Ensure font is the default "Use the system fixed width font (Ubuntu Mono 13)" is checked. 2) Create two tabs, in one tab write: 1 2 3 4 In the other tab, write: <blank> <blank> <blank> 4 Switch between the tabs and observer that line 4 is in a different location in each tab. Using a different font "Monospace Regular 12" makes the problem go away, hence I suspect the problem is the font.
